The existing house appeared very tall from the street yet was cramped and lacked good flow inside. It had a gable roof with an awkward addition poking up. There was no connection to the rear yard, only two bedrooms on the top floor, and a very low ceiling at the first floor. The family of four and a dog needed more usable space and a large kitchen for an avid cook in the family.

现有的房子从街道上看上去很高，但却很拥挤，里面也没有很好的流动。它有一个山墙屋顶，加上一个笨拙的附加物。没有连接到后院，只有两个卧室在顶层，一个非常低的天花板在一楼。四口之家和一只狗需要更多的可用空间和一个大厨房，供家里的一个狂热的厨师使用。

We telescoped the Glen Park house apart to gain more height on all levels, and created a double-height entry volume at the street front. A kitchen by Henrybuilt dominates the open plan, and an extension at the back with large sliding doors opens to the garden beyond. Colorful bathroom tiles, a custom steel stair are new elements that modernize the house and add an aspect whimsy without compromising on space.

我们将GlenPark的房子分开，以便在各个层级上获得更多的高度，并在街道前部创建了双高度的进入空间。由Henrybuild的厨房主导着开放的平面，在后面的一个带有大型滑动门的延伸部分通向花园。彩色浴室瓷砖，定制的钢楼梯是新的元素，使房子现代化，并增加了一个方面的奇幻，而不影响空间。
